Arguably broken but compared to other tools it behaves in the same way.

The same can be said for gcc and other tools as well and it is not 
limited to package.d: any two files with the same name would have the 
same problem, meaning that the particular build system that puts those 
unrelated files in the same directory is in error, not the compiler.

The way I see it, the right solution is to provide correct paths to dmd 
for each file.
